I agree with what he is saying.. I however would replace the converter just for the fact of metal debris in the trans.. I have a 91 park ave then when my converter locks it sounds like a belt sander just was placed on the car and the locks up fine, and on the outside when it locks it sounds like bells or marbles. once it locks its fine.. annoys the hell out me, trans shifts great only 105K but i think it gets sluggish from time to time, and i was afraid of tranny failure but now i think its just a converter gone bad. if you open the window and take off i hear like a whine that seems to wind up as i go then eventualy goes away. I bet thats the converter.. I know this isn't a 5.0L question but what do u guys think? There also was flakes in the trans fluid which i have been changing every 3K...
